Meta faces a lawsuit from 26 employees accusing the company of using AI tools that unfairly targeted workers with disabilities and those on medical leave during recent layoffs. The suit claims Meta's AI system, including an internal bot and activity tracking, penalized employees for legally protected leaves, violating discrimination laws. Meta denies these allegations, stating that human decisions guided layoffs, not AI. This case highlights growing legal scrutiny over AI use in workforce management amid Meta's large-scale job cuts and heavy AI investment plans.
